I think it has to do with capability and market segment - when you're spending 45-60k or more on a vehicle, and it does exactly what you need it to do out of the box, it's harder to justify expensive mods in a recession (2x decline in gdp by quarter is how I'd define that). Conversely, if you're...

Thought long and hard about it - they are indeed really cool (EVs). Cant make the EV numbers pencil for me though, no matter what laws they pass. A big change we made in our household in the last 6 years was the move away from depreciation if all possible. This was a big ego check but healthy...

Prices are indeed insane - a big reason I sold my JL and went back to a Tacoma. I figured I'd grab a TJ for a project in the next few years, but at this rate who knows. Inflation coupled with supply is a huge factor as many have stated here. A quick look at offerup this morning yields TJs for...

There's a lot of factors here. The dilemma with Jeeps is they have always been vehicles that hold their value - in my opinion more than they're objectively worth. This was true in the used TJ market years ago, and the JL has exacerbated this. I'm not sure if burst is the right word, but it's...

Don't feel bad brother. If it's not the right fit - it's not the right fit. A strange component of automotive hobbies is the larger-than-normal brand identity thing. At the end of the day it's just a vehicle. You can always buy another one if you want. I'm jeepless for awhile, too, and probably...

This must be a mistake. "Davenport!"

Absolutely true - my decision was of course particular to my sitution and given much thought. Context: as my for sale post said, for the next 24 months or so we will be doing motorcyle touring. I also do some forest road camping. The big thing is I cant put it off another year: I need to rebuild...

Yea it's nuts. Traded in my Jeep the other day for 6k more than I paid for it. Dollar value...market...shortage...covidasaurus rex....I dunno what it is but it's bonkers.

Dropped off jeep at 830am - was done by 10:15. No issues so far. Rairdons of Marysville in Washington.

I started Jeep camping to find remote locations to target shoot. I was riding a motorcycle exclusively at the time (long story) and finally one winter and one too many close calls with ice I decided riding a motorcycle with a bunch of guns and then hiking in just wasn't fun. Recreational...

Mine goes in this Saturday. Hoping for a nice, clean one-and-done repair.

Not at all. We've had em on a few vehicles. Nice but not necessary in the same way I'd say "omfg A/C is damn necessary." Tbh when it's really, really cold - I never put a load on an engine without letting it warm up, and the JL heats up so damn fast by the time the vehicle hits operating temp I...

Fully stock except for the hard top.

I agree with your initial conclusion - unless you're adding a proper extended tank - look into The Road Chose Me instagram page for a recent post on his Gladiator in Australia - extra cans are not worth the effort unless you're a person who likes prepping for things that aren't going to happen...

Mine is in a bag under my floorboard. I can quickly access it through the side when the doors are open. In my LJ and one of my TJs I had hard mounted ones. I like the portability of being able to move it around.

When I bought my 20' they offered me 5 in trade for my 2006 LJ. I said not a penny less than 8 or I walk. They took it. Im sure I could have easily got 10 private sale. Imo push harder or post it online.

My 2cents... I've done ground tents for years, box-style RTT, and Ursa Minor. For a million reasons, Ursa is my favorite. Good things cost money - mine was 7k, but again...at 42k cost of jeep I'm still under 50k before tax for a JLUR + Ursa. If you can afford the cost and the wait...there is no...
